Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result...a definition of insanity.

While I agree with the basis of this idea...and certainly agree with the predicted outcome...as a lifelong golfer, I watch a very good teacher on the The Golf Channel called Martin Hall.

Martin is an "older" Brit..meaning he is almost as old as me...in his early 60's I believe. And they keep pairing him up with hot young female co-hosts...currently Blair O'Neal...a very competent player who first came to "fame" on a show called "The Big Break"...a show that in its second season was won by a guy I once played a great deal of golf with...a guy named Kip Henley, who currently caddies on tour for a young guy named Austin Cook...they manged a win earlier this season.

But I prattle on...the point of this post is to offer a wrinkle on the earlier stated definition of insanity. Mr. Hall ends each of his lesson shows with what he calls his mission statement:

"If you keep doing what you've been doing...you'll keep getting what you've been getting"

Somehow, I find that is a better way of stating the concept...and though his take is about getting better at golf, my own take is about getting better at life...all parts of life...even relationships. Something I should probably give more consideration to.

Be well...

We've all heard the phrase...

Great things have been discovered when people trying to do the same thing the same way in order to obtain the same result make a "mistake" and as a result they gave birth to such wonderful things!!!

It happens the same when we are trying to solve something... thinking and thinking and thinking and thinking the same... when you stop and do other things then the answer comes just like a new light starts...

Then why not take the chance to look for something different? Open mind and just give a try to new inimaginable experiences? Something that maybe we think we wouldn't like but after we try we do?... That is what life is about for me... traditional and not traditional at the same time... beautiful theme to talk about!

Great. I'm insane. I really try to be realistic but have a habit of dreaming. Doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Maybe I like being a little insane at times. It is easier. It passes the time in a more entertaining way than television. I will be working on this character flaw for a while. Sweat Insanity...
